POSITION SUMMARY:

We are looking for team-members to complete pre-check-in and post-check-out home inspections on Saturdays this summer season. You will be judging the cleanliness of the house after the cleaning team has finished cleaning, looking for damage in the home left by guests, checking electronics and appliances for functionality, making sure beds are made and helping us to deliver our guests and home-owners with top-notch customer service.

We're looking for someone trustworthy, hard-working, and motivated - Also someone capable of light maintenance (changing light-bulbs, batteries, air filters, rolling trash-cans to the curb, organizing and wiping down patio and pool furniture, etc.) The right candidate will have a strong attention to detail, ability to multitask and to communicate and work well with a team.

For the right candidate there will be opportunities for more hours and additional work-opportunities throughout the week and movement from part-time to full-time employment.

You’ll find that this position is the perfect opportunity to gain valuable experience in hospitality and gain additional income that won’t affect your commitments if you have Monday through Friday, 9-5 job. 

How you’ll spend your day

Your day starts after the housekeeping team has completed thoroughly cleaning our homes. Your first step will be to open our app (Breezeway), where everything is tracked and an inspection checklist is available. You’ll then do a walkthrough of each room, checking to make sure everything looks clean and tidy. You'll also test each appliance, making sure they're all working correctly, and check for signs of wear and tear.

If you notice any issues, you’ll note them in the app to address any problems before the next guests arrive.

After your initial inspection, you'll spend some time restocking the rental property with fresh towels, linens, and other amenities if necessary. Once you have completed the inspection and everything is in place, you’ll move on to the next property. 

This job is rewarding as it allows you to not only earn additional income but also plays a vital role in the enjoyment of vacationers in our area.
